CORONA, Calif., July 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- AVT, Inc. (OTC
Markets: AVTC) (www.autoretail.com), a leader in automated
retailing, micro-stores, custom vending machines and kiosks,
commented today on the opening of legal marijuana dispensaries in
Washington State.
The state now joins Colorado as
the first two in the nation to allow for the legal adult use of
marijuana or cannabis.
Experts predict that sales of cannabis in Washington will surpass those in Colorado, which according to ABC News is
larger than previously estimated. Washington State has a population that is 33%
greater than Colorado's,
accordingly the market is predicted to be proportionately
larger.
As more states pass medical and adult use marijuana legislation,
the need for systems that regulate and control the substance will
increase. Storage dispensing and compliance machines such as the
type that AVT builds for its customers will grow in demand.
"One of the things that separates AVT from any other
manufacturer is that we partner with some of the most innovative
companies in the world to produce new types of systems that
redefine entire industries," Shannon
Illingworth, Founder and Chairman of AVT commented. "From a
self-service propane tank exchange to a gourmet coffee kiosk that
has almost as many options as your neighborhood coffee shop; or an
automated eyeglass cleaner and sanitizer; or a hot burrito, freshly
squeezed juice, or freshly prepared salad dispenser; AVT is at the
forefront of helping design, develop, and launch the most
innovative self service systems in the world," he added. "The
marijuana and medicine dispensing machines we build for our clients
are another example of how technology can shape the future of
industries."
According to CNBC, the marijuana market in America could top
$10.2 billion within a few years.
